CONTEMPORARY ELEGANCE

Flawlessly sophisticated in either 29mm or 34mm, it features an elegant silhouette and open sapphire case back that showcases the movements of its automatic calibre entirely developed, crafted and assembled in our workshop in the Vallee de Joux. Featuring a night and day or moon-phase indicator, the floral hour numerals and hands take an elongated contemporary shape for a gracefully modern look. The hand-guilloché décor and mother-of-pearl finish associated to diamonds reflect the finest Haute Horlogerie traditions.

A REVOLUTION WORN ON THE WRIST

The very first wristwatches were worn by women in the early 1900s and were only later adopted by men. Edmond Jaeger and Jacques-David LeCoultre quickly understood that the wristwatch would revolutionise the entire industry. They also understood how this revolution could change the entire approach to watchmaking. The drive to craft watches that were thinner, more complex and that featured elements of high jewellery and complications, was inspired by women. For women, a watch was not only to tell time, but it was an ornament, a jewel, to accompany them throughout day and night. Our Rendez-Vous luxury watch collection continues this proud tradition today.
